    Default Tv mount on tile install

    Anyone got a good contact for mounting a tv onto a tiled wall? I got quoted 150 bucks but don't know if that's the going rate.

    $150 seems pretty cheap to pay someone to do it. Probably a solid hour of work and they're bringing all their own tools.

    If you have a level, drill and bits do it yourself for free.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    I would expect $150 to be the bare minimum for this.

    Tile bit needed and technique or you risk cracking the tile. Also unsure but seems like you'll either clamp it to the tile and split it or it won't be tight enough.

    I've never installed on tile before, don't want to end up cracking it. Regular walls are no problem.

    Someone told me to use task rabbit

    if you are worried about cracking the tile doing it yourself, you should also consider what remedies you would have if task rabbit bro ends up cracking your tile

    At this point in time I am just assuming Jabjab is Mar's cousin. They are too similar to not be related.

    Fingers cross neighbours won’t be dicks complaining about hammer drilling noises. Jkjk. I vote for $150 done professionally if there’s guarantee replacement of cracked tiles
